Light, spacious and easy to live in, this two bedroom apartment is in a great position with the beach at one end of the street and fashionable Western Road – and Waitrose - at the other. Spanning the whole of the second floor of a large period terraced house it spreads its wings from east to west so has the light all day, and the living room is stylish, contemporary and open plan, so it is a great upgrade. With local bus routes serving every part of our exciting coastal resort, the station serving Gatwick and London is just a 15 minute walk, so this sophisticated apartment will attract professionals and investors- and close to popular schools, it will suit a small family, too.

Why you’ll like it:
Get that holiday feeling every time you turn into this broad, one way street of period homes stepping down to the sea! Set well back from the traffic, this stately building has a smart front door and inside, a hushed communal hall is clearly cared for. An unusually sensitive conversion into modern luxury homes, there is only one apartment on each storey to keep the historic character of the original house and up on the second floor, the lobby is shared only by the top flat, so this apartment is more private than many.

To make the most of the after work sunshine, the spacious living room is at the back of the building and is bright and inviting with a broad window almost filling the west wall. Surprisingly quiet for this central location, the ceiling is high and there is plenty of room to create defined areas for relaxing or to share with friends. Open plan, the kitchen is tucked away from the main living area so although it is sociable it does not dominate the whole space, and the practical design includes a change of flooring from carpet to wipeable linoleum. Chic contemporary units provide ample storage and working surface, the electric hob, oven and hood are integrated for you, plumbing is in place for a machine and there is still space for a tall fridge freezer, which will be useful for the Prosecco as this is a natural place for friends to meet up before a day on the beach or night on the town….

A central bathroom is simple but stylish with designer flooring and all you need including a shower above the bath, and at the front of the building, the first of the generous double bedrooms has wardrobes fitted to reach the ceiling – which is high – and could also be a comfortable home office, large enough for two. Next door, the principle double bedroom is light and airy with calm decoration. Triple wardrobes have fashionable, sliding doors concealing sophisticated storage solutions, and there is plenty of floorspace to play with even with a double bed in it.
